Not as effective as the Charcoal Scrub for me!
This just doesn't get the job done for me like the On the Rocks Charcoal Scrub did. I use the full suite of Drybar products, and this is the first thing I will need to find an alternative for. The Charcoal Scrub would extend my wash time by several days, I find this product doesn't do anything more ...

No Big Difference
Complimentary from Drybar, I wanted to love this product but truly it is just ok. I have a really dry scalp and use a lot of product that causes buildup. I've been using it most mornings when I shower and I really have noticed a big difference.
Love this!!!
Love this product!! So innovative! I've been using this for a few weeks now and love how it gets rid of all my excess oil and flakes before I actually shampoo. I have a problem with my hair getting super oily and this has made my blowouts last so much longer!

Gifted by Drybar. This is my first Drybar hair care product ever! The Crown Tonic Pre-Shampoo Scalp-Balancing Cleanser helps exfoliate & remove excess sebum & flakes from the scalp, to help unblock hair follicles and improve your scalp's condition. A side benefit is that by unclogging hair follicles, your hair will grown in faster. This an AHA/BHA complex with glycolic & salicylic acid to help remove buildup on the scalp, a probiotic complex so that it can help soothe, hydrate & remove flakes as well as mango extract, for excess sebum. This also has niacinamide, an anti-inflammatory antioxidant that helps increase the body, sheen & texture of your hair by helping to build keratin. This is a pre-shampoo treatment that you can use whenever you feel the need ~ apply to wet hair, turning the nozzle to open, squeeze out a generous dollop on your scalp, then twist the nozzle to the closed position. The nozzle has a hair massaging unit attached to, so you then massage your scalp with that nozzle for a few minutes, working the product into your scalp. Rinse and then shampoo/condition as normal. This has a fresh scent of ginger, mint & sandalwood and it is very nice! My scalp doesn't feel itchy afterwards & my hair feels free of buildup. It is cold out here, and my normally oily scalp is getting more oily & itchy due to the heat inside my home & office. This keeps my hair looking clean, fuller & my scalp feels great!
good
complimentary from Drybar. The product is fantastic! My scalp was dehydrated and irritated. My hair began falling off in certain areas. I do not feel any more irritation on my scalp and the small balding spots I had are hardly noticeable. My hair has been growing back much fuller. But I don't really like the smell, very plastic. also, I like the applicator that helps me wash out all impurities.

I will definitely be keeping this in my routine!
I never knew I needed a pre scalp cleanser, and honestly I thought it was just another "add on" item that promised a lot but didn't perform. But this stuff really made me realize that just a typical shampooing does not remove all the build up, especially if you don't wash your hair everyday and use dry shampoo like I do. After I used the pre treatment and started to shampoo I felt like my shampoo was even working better, it just felt different. Honestly my hair has never felt so clean, my scalp feels amazing like it can breathe. My only complaint is I didn't really care for the scrubber, I felt it tangled my hair and didn't really work the product around and I ended up just using my hands. The product itself is amazing, scrubber aside and I love the scent.
